Fresh Easter Monday Grabs

Kurt Vile - Speed, Sound, Lonely KV (ep)
The Cars - The Cars MoFi
The Grateful Dead - Skull & Roses MoFi
John Lee Hooker - It Serves You Right To Suffer AP 45 RPM
J Mascis - Several Shades Of Why
Primus - Tales From The Punch Bowl
Darkside - Psychic
These were all mail deliveries. Kurt Vile and Darkside were ordered directly from Matador. The Cars and John Lee Hooker were purchased from Acoustic Sounds. The Grateful Dead MoFi was a good deal from Discogs. J Mascis was an average deal from Discogs and Primus was PIF winner from mensch @zdkaiser. I’ve gotta lot of listening ahead of me.

Vol 6 has arrived. May there never be another box set like it. Looks great. Super glad they may be releasing more of these for those still trying to put this together. As for me, I earned this one in time, energy, and treasure.

Joshua Abrams - Natural Information
Joshua Abrams - Represencing

Chicago-based bassist Josh Abrams puts out a singular style of improvisational, avant garde jazz spotlighting the guimbri, a three-stringed North African bass lute. Its primordial, rhythmic drone lulls like a deep rainstorm, gently bringing shifts in instrumentation and percussion to the forefront in jams that go on as long as 25 minutes. These are special records, recently reissued by Aguirre Records in Belgium, and beautifully pressed at Pallas.

Just saw this coming soon and thought of you.

.....now we're down to the REAL pricey ones, lol.

Happy to have checked another one off

Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony (black vinyl) arrived today. Pepper and her love pig approve.

 

[Panera Ciabatta Diapers]

Some of these are fresh-ish. I was gone for a year and my wife was kind enough to hold onto them. Now I'm slowly going through them. A few I got since I've been back.

Fiona Apple When the Pawn...VMP


Armand Hammer - Shrines


Prince - The Rainbow Children...funk yeah!!!!


Prince SOTT - peach vinyl. I got the CD and vinyl box sets too of the RMs but Prince is an artist I you only YOLO once with every time



OG Canadian copy of Tears for Fears - Seeds of Love. I bought this when I got back. Seller graded it M/M but opened and played. Newer seller. I obviously new it wasnt mint in the vinyl by definition nor did I think the jacket would be. But the price was actually really good and all 6 of their discogs ratings were positive. Vinyl actually played great. A solid NM. Jacket was a VG- w a small seam split on top and showing its age in other places. But I was happy for the price. I did send the seller a long message encouraging them to take grading more seriously because there would be buyers who would ride him about that M/M shit. I declined to leave any feedback.


Mingus Ah Um MOFI One Step


Belladonna VMP. meh. Not an exciting pick. One of the last I got from VMP


McCoy Tuner - Sahara VMP. Stellar pick


Sonny Sharrock - Ask the Ages VMP


Gibbs/Alchemist - Alfredo

 

[Panera Ciabatta Diapers]

Another great Classics pick that VMP did. Otis - The Immortal


Pet Sounds - AP 45 RPM Stereo. TBH I already had the AP 45 RPM mono and the AP 33 Stereo (among too many other versions of this album) but when this came back in stock while I was away there was no hesitation.

Nice grabs! Welcome back Stateside.

I've got a lot more to get through but I'm trying to not allow the buying, cleaning, curation parts of the hobby to monopolize it anymore and just the listening and enjoying. So I've been cleaning 1-2 daily (or none at all). Making the effort to not let a hobby control me

Blown away by the mastering on this one. Might be their best sounding record.

Pepper digs it. Love Pig is more into the album art than the music
